Hands down the best paella in whole Darmstadt. Been going there since my childhood and it never…read moredisappoint! The paella is gigantic so order one for two if your are 4. It will still be plenty! The flavor is exactly what you get in Spain. The seafood is fresh and so are the peas. The rice is al dente and overall the texture is just plain amazing! The waitress was a little slow and didn't understand our drink order (we are Germans and talked German so no language barrier) still we had a great time. They also have a "biergarten" so you can sit outside in summer. Only really bad thing is that there's no parking and it's very difficult to find a spot.

La Bodega is a small Spanish restaurant in Darmstadt. It specialises in Paella, and I have to say,…read moreit was pretty good paella. I had the chicken, but they also do rabbit, seafood and a mixed one (which hubby had). There is a limited tapas menu, but the bread and garlic mayonnaise was nice and the prawns in garlic were delicious (we like garlic). The waitress was very friendly, and the portions generous. A nice wine list too, I had a lovely glass of Rioja. it's a bit off-putting when you walk in, as you are faced with a bar, with local customers sitting and chatting, and you feel a bit - blocked. Just push your way through and grab a seat - it is small, so you might want to book. The prices are very reasonable, and I enjoyed my evening.

The pulpo ruined the experience because it tasted like paper with oil and lemon and the texture felt like it's been dead in the fridge for 4 days. We also ordered a carafe of sangria. My shrink advised me never to repress my feelings so as much as I don't want to talk about it anymore, i have to say it: it's boxed wine with 2 ice cubes and a sad amount of "fruit" slices. Don't ask.

For tapas, we ordered roasted pablano peppers, bacon-wrapped dates, the fried potatoes with spicy sauce, mussels in a spicy tomato sauce, and fried calamari with garlic aioli. I also ordered the jamon iberico because I was curious to try it. Peppers: Good. Could use a tad more salt. Bacon-wrapped dates: YUM. Fried potatoes: they were good, but I've had better. Mussels: Do not recommend. They were rubbery tasting, and the sauce didn't pair that well. Fried Calamari: Very good. Jamon Iberico: So good, I ordered a second plate and went home feeling a tad...gluttonous... So yep, all in all, I'd recommend this place. Service was friendly, if a bit accident prone that evening (glassware crashed to the floor twice in the two hours we were there). I'd go back!
